What's better than a 3 course meal at one of Portland's best restaurants? A 3 course meal at almost ANY of Portland's best restaurants for only $33!! There are 129 different restaurants in Portland that have created special menus for Portland Dining Month through the end of March. It is a great way to get to sample restaurants you have been hearing about but either haven't had time to go to or are out of your price range.

Rachel's Ginger Beer makes fantastic, strong, flavorful ginger beer using a variety of fresh ingredients. They offer some unique flavors, such as blood orange, pink guava or a current summer special of raspberry hibiscus.

One of my absolute biggest weaknesses is pizza. I really do love it all- New York style, deep dish, cheap or expensive. Every year Portland helps pizza lovers like me celebrate with $2 slices throughout the city. This year the event takes place from April 17- April 22 and 30 local restaurants are participating!

March in Portland means Portland Dining Month, where over 100 local restaurants offer a three course meal for only $29. Meals at some of these restaurants can set you back substantially more, sometimes just for an entree, so trying out new places during this month is a great way to experiment, find new favorite places, or get a great value at an otherwise expensive restaurant.

The Goose Hollow neighborhood in Portland sits west of downtown and just south of Burnside street. The neighborhood is more residential than some of the other neighborhoods in Portland, but is certainly not lacking in attractions, restaurants and things to do. Goose Hollow is still very walkable, with downtown being only a few blocks down the hill and NW Portland being right over Burnside.

Portland is a beautiful place, and many of the most iconic images of this gorgeous city come from Downtown Portland. From the tall downtown buildings to the waterfront of the Willamette River, the downtown area is really the heart of this city. There is great shopping, food and drinks, and amazing people watching. All of the action happens downtown, so hop on the Max or the streetcar and check out the sights!
